[QUOTE="SPECIAL LOCATION, post: 13619, member: 250"] Just to add my tuppence to an old thread... 1/ Flexible cable on a caravan NOT t&e due to movement & vibration etc.. 2/ size suitable or the max load.... remember that the supply cable is only 2.5mm 16a flex.. so no point going bigger than that. 3/ the total supply is often limited to 16a (or in some cases 10a) so no point going bigger cable size for bigger loads... 4/ what is the realistic maximum load? often mostly chargers for phones, MP3's, Laptops etc.. occasional hairdryer or toaster or portable TV / kettles very often gas! our caravan has 6a lights & 10a socket circuit.. so far NEVER blown!
